Stain-specific chemistry for wine, coffee, pet accidents, rust, ink and grease — on carpet, rugs, upholstery and mattresses.
Stain removal in Eastlake usually means the upstairs. In most 1990s and 2000s homes across Eastlake Greens, Eastlake Woods and Eastlake Vistas, the first floor is tile and the bedrooms, loft and stairs are wall-to-wall carpet, which is exactly where kids eat snacks, pets nap and craft projects happen. Imperial Carpet Cleaning drives about 25 minutes from Point Loma to 91914 and 91915 to take on the juice boxes, red drink mixes, slime, markers and pet accidents that land on that carpet. We sort each spot by type, since a fruit punch stain and a greasy pizza drip need completely different treatments, and we extract everything so the loft carpet does not wick those spots back up next week.
Eastlake family homes tend to share the same carpet stain map. Kids' bedrooms collect red and blue drink mixes, popsicles and markers. The loft or bonus room picks up soda, chips and greasy fingerprints from movie nights. The stairs carry a line of gray traffic plus drips from whatever was carried up them. And the spot beside the bed, where a puppy or an older dog sleeps, often has a pet accident or two hidden in it.
Red drink mixes like Kool-Aid and sports drinks are the ones parents ask about most. They are dye stains, not dirt, so a normal cleaning only lightens them. We treat them with a dye-specific process that can take several applications and some patience, and we tell you in advance whether a stain is likely to disappear or only fade. Pet accidents are protein and salt, and we keep heat off them until they have been pre-treated so the stain is not set. Slime, gum and crayon are handled with the right release agent first, then rinsed out.
The drier inland air in Eastlake helps carpets dry quickly, but fine dust settles into any sticky residue left by household spot sprays, which is why we often find gray halos around old treated spots. Our zero-residue rinse removes both the original stain and those leftover cleaners. Builder-grade carpet in many homes here is thinner and more prone to wicking, so we keep moisture controlled and pull liquid back out of the backing instead of leaving it to dry in place. Stairs deserve a special mention, since drips land on the front edge of each tread, where agitation has to be gentle to avoid fuzzing the yarn tips.

We have used Imperial Carpet Care service several times throughout the years and they did a great job this time as always. The communication was easy and the service team was very professional. They helped removed some pet and coffee stains that have been there for a couple of years too. Highly recommend and would definitely hire again!

I had a great experience with Imperial Carpet Cleaning! From the beginning, they were incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating. They were able to fit me in quickly for an estimate, gave me a very fair price, and then scheduled the cleaning soon after in a way that worked perfectly with my schedule. They did a fantastic job cleaning my LVP floors and two couches, and everything looks so much better! I really appreciated how easy and pleasant the entire process was. Great service, great communication, fair pricing, and excellent results. I would absolutely recommend Imperial Carpet Cleaning!

They did a very good job! First the woman on the phone Iris was very helpful and booked us for the very next morning. The workers were punctual and friendly and bilingual and did a great job. We had a smaller space so they only took about thirty minutes which was perfect for us because we had to get to work. We are pleased with the outcome.

Often, but it depends on how long it sat and whether the carpet is nylon or polyester. Red drink mixes are dye stains, so we use a dye-specific treatment that may need several applications. Many spots disappear completely; some older ones fade to a faint pink. We will tell you which result to expect before we start the work.
Most household spot sprays leave soap residue in the fibers. That sticky film catches the fine inland dust common in Eastlake and turns gray over a few weeks. We remove the leftover product along with any remaining stain using a zero-residue rinse, so the area stops attracting dirt.
Yes. Stairs collect traffic soil and drips on the front edge of each step. We treat individual spots and can clean the full staircase, which is $69 for one set of stairs. Stairs are cleaned by hand with a detail tool so we can reach the edges and risers properly.
Yes. Our solutions are eco-friendly and non-toxic, and they are safe for kids and pets once dry, which is usually 3 to 6 hours. We simply ask that children and animals stay off the carpet while it is damp so they do not track moisture or soil into the freshly cleaned areas.
